Spinning Flowers[1] are red flowers that act as rotating platforms in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. Spinning Flowers are found throughout the game and are used to reach high places. When Mario jumps onto a Spinning Flower, he begins to spin in a clockwise direction. When he jumps off, he is launched high and far in one direction. However, if Mario stands on a Spinning Flower for too long, he gets dizzy and falls off. Spinning Flowers are found in only three levels in this game: Mushroom Way, Bandit's Way, and Land's End.

A Spinning Flower in Paper Mario

In Paper Mario, purple Spinning Flowers appear on Lavalava Island. In this game, they have only petals, with no "base" face in the middle. When Mario jumps onto a Spinning Flower and the player hits the Z Button button, he is propelled in the air. This lets Mario reach higher than he could before, and it allows him to reach objects way up in the air. This also helps him find the Fearsome 5 that got lost playing hide-n-sneak in Jade Jungle.

Tattle[edit]

It's a Spinning Flower. It grows only on Lavalava Island and spins constantly. If you press the Z Button button while on the flower, you'll spin up into the air for a while.
